A Louisiana Clergyman Affidavit is a document used in the state of Louisiana to confirm the marital status of an individual. It is usually completed by a clergyman, such as a priest or minister, who has knowledge of the parties involved and can attest to their marital status. The affidavit is typically used for legal purposes such as obtaining a marriage license or filing a divorce. There are two types of Louisiana Clergyman Affidavit: the Premarital Affidavit and the Post-Marital Affidavit. The Premarital Affidavit is used to confirm that the parties involved are unmarried and can be married in the state of Louisiana. The Post-Marital Affidavit is used to confirm that the parties involved are married and are now eligible for a divorce.
